   Its always adviseable to place your Christmas Cactus in bright but indirect light, so keep it away from sunlight and other heating sources like fireplaces etc. For better growth of this plant keep your house temperature around 65 to 80 degrees.

   
   

   If  you are living in a dry environment humidity for the Christmas Cactus is highly recommended, water the plant carefully, you shouldnot underwater it, excessive watering is also harmful as it will cause white rot spots on the leaves. Keep the soil evenly moist, it will help in good growth of the plant.

   
   

   Add fertilizers for the fast and good growth of the plant. Proper light exposure, right temperatures and moderate watering will boost flower  blooming in this plant. If you want Christmas Cactus to branch out prune it once in a month.
